Chapter 41: The Beginning of Love (Part II)
Yuhan and Yunqing woke me up at four o'clock and began to groom me. In fact, during the national mourning, everyone must wear linen clothes, and women do not wear jewelry. I straightened my sideburns and said happily: "Yunqing, you go and prepare breakfast for me, you only need Yuhan here, anyway, you don't need any jewelry." ”
Yun Qing said: "Although the princess is still serving filial piety, and her clothes and accessories cannot be luxurious, after all, today is the big day for the new emperor to ascend the throne, not to mention that the new emperor will canonize the princess after ascending the throne." So, Princess, you can't dress too casually today. ”
Yun Qing is reasonable. At the enthronement ceremony of the new emperor, the new emperor will canonize the queen and harem concubines, and knight the heirs of the royal family, and will also promote meritorious officials. A few days ago, the prince personally promised to make me the princess of filial piety, and I want to go to the palace to listen to the seal, and I should naturally dress solemnly and decently.
Seeing that I didn't speak, Yuhan saw the opportunity and asked, "How about the slave maid and Yunqing comb a fairy bun for the princess?" ”
I have not yet recovered from the loss of my father, and even such a major event as entering the seal does not arouse my interest in the slightest. It is true that I did not think about all the events of the day of the new emperor's accession to the throne. Fortunately, Yuhan and Yunqing thought about it for me in advance. The Flying Fairy Bun is indeed a kind of hair bun suitable for me, which can not only show my noble and extraordinary status in the palace, but also because it is an exclusive hair bun for girls, so it will not conflict with the hairstyles of the new queen and other concubines.
I was silent for a moment, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, and asked, "The Flying Immortal Bun is extremely complicated, and it is not easy to comb ......."
"That's why Yun Qing and I woke up the princess so early!" Yuhan grinned and gently began to comb my hair.
I didn't say anything, but I felt very relieved and grateful. Yuhan and Yun Qing knew that I had been in a very bad mood recently, so they thought about everything for me and made proper arrangements. They are not only my most faithful maids, but also my most intimate sisters with different surnames.
Yuhan and Yunqing worked together, and it took a lot of effort to get it done. Then Yuhan decorated the white begonias that had just been picked in the morning one by one in my hair, and finally tied the white ribbon into a bow to decorate the back of my bun. And Yunqing took a plain white brocade palace dress for me to change into, and then put on a white gauze robe for me, and prepared to go to the Taiji Palace.
Step out of the Yuehua Gate, pass through the Jiade Gate, and then come to the Taiji Gate. The sedan car I was riding in had already stopped at the Guardian Gate. I took Yuhan and Yunqing step by step along the side street to the Taiji Gate. As long as you pass through the Taiji Gate, you will arrive at the Taiji Palace. The enthronement ceremony of the new emperor was held here.
I was getting a little excited and a little nervous at the same time. After all, from birth to the present, in my fifteen years of court life, I have only been able to set foot in the Taiji Hall once, and I have entered it as a sinful person. Now that time has passed, I no longer have to tremble, I can take a closer look at the magnificent Tai Chi Hall to make up for my previous regrets.
From a distance, the officials of the Manchu Dynasty have almost arrived, standing in their position step by step, so although there are many people in front of the palace, they are still in order.
I watched as I walked, but I didn't expect someone to come up to me. Since I was looking elsewhere, when I noticed someone coming, it was too late to change direction or stop. The people who came seemed to be hurrying away with their heads down, and they didn't notice my presence. So, I collided with the visitor.
"Ahh It was Yuhan who made the scream.
